Baby head circumference

2018-12-20 17:44:00
My baby just completed his 9th month today. His head circumference is 47cm and his weight is 10kg. As per his pediatrician his head circumference is much more than as usual. Doctor stated his vitamin D is less and also suggested me to go for his head ultrasound. Seems very scary and very much worried about the same. Please suggest

Nothing to worry, most probably head ultrasound will be normal, continue vitamin D,
